The store I bought all my scorpions from, gave me this 5 cc glass bottle with a plastic snap-on lid, labeled heteromeles (spelling). It had tissue inside. I didn't find it for several days. When I opened it and removed the top layer of tissue, there it was, an extremely tiny scorpion. He was alive and active after more than 36 hours in that air-tight bottle at 65 F. With his tail stretched out, he's 3/4 inch long, and almost transparent. I have him in a large (four pound, about one quart) yoghurt tub on slightly damp paper towel that is pressed to the bottom, with the lid snapped on, and I put it in one of my large tanks to regulate the temperature of the tub.
I think the only suitable prey are pin-head crickets. Is there any other prey animal I could buy for him?
Do scorpions care for their babies, or are the babies just on their own?
I know my questions are odd and of-topic. But then, I'm desperate. I do not want this tiny scorpion to die of thirst or of hunger, or of cold or heat.
